Reviews For EltaMD UV Active Broad Spectrum SPF 50+ Mineral Full Body Sunscreen
Used for my face
I received a sample from my previous purchase and liked the way that is lighter on my face. I didn't know it was for body. I immediately ordered one and the same brand name for face. For the one with face, it will not have the white cast like the body one. Anyway, it is light and I do love it.

Great for all over
I use the clear 46 for my face and love it. Didn’t want to use that for my body when out in the sun for my walks etc. purchased this figuring it’d be just as good as the facial one. Yep! It is. Not too thick and blends in/rubs in quickly and keeps me from burning. No irritation.

Great product to use for outdoor activities
I feel this product has provided a robust protection with no stimulation to my sensitive skin. I usually use the Elta MD tinted water resistance spf 41 sunscreen for limited outdoor activities when it is not too bright and shine outside, and I recently switch to this one when I am running outside at noon with sunlight blasting directly from the sky. I found this has provided more protection the other. This has become my ultimate defense against the UV for intense exposure under the sun for long time, and it has been working very well for this purpose. One more benefit to mention, it does not irritate my eyes when I am sweating during running. I would recommend anyone to try it out for the similar purpose.

Great Protection But Difficult to Blend
This mineral sunscreen is a great summer staple for when you don't have time to pre-apply. My dermatologist highly recommends this brand, and this product in particular. My only complaint is that it goes on white and resists blending in - you really have to work at it. I have the small bottle of the clear for my face and it blends in great. Wish it was available in a larger size for whole-body use.

eltaMD SPF50
Have used this product previously and love it---goes on smoothly and is not greasy. No smell and it helps tremendously when I go out in the sun. Will always use it---summer or winter.

eltaMD uv active spf 50+
This is a nice product BUT tube size is way too small. Supposed to be for all over but if you use the correct amount it would be gone in 1-2 uses!

Odor/Pungent
I cannot recommend Elta MD more, however, I was in-between choosing a suncream for my body and regret to have ordered this option. I concluded the larger 8oz size bottle would be handy to have, but the cream has a pungent odor. Our family did a test swatch on the top of our hand and could not believe the odor from the suncream. I could not recommend this one and sadly, I have no use for this suncream. What a waste :(.

EltaMD Broad-Spectrum SPF 50+ Full-Body Sunscreen
I’ve used EltaMD facial sunscreen for years and have been extremely satisfied with it, so I thought I would try the full-body sunscreen. I am very please with this product. Since I play golf and tennis, I wanted a product with zinc oxide that would protect my hands and forearms. EltaMD full-body sunscreen definitely does the job.

If I could give negative stars I would, and I’m an Elta fan
I was very excited to buy this when it launched. I use either the elta sport or elta elements every day for years, so with the benefits of active being a physical sunscreen and blue light blocker I couldn’t wait. It is NOT transparent. Even after applying only a tiny bit, it left a white cast / purple like hue to my face. What is even worse than that is it is EXTREMELY tight feeling on the skin. Worst sunscreen I have ever tried.

Did not like this
I found this sunscreen unacceptable because it was way too thick and it left a white sheen where applied. I returned it.

Good sunscreen
Not my favorite EltaMD sunscreen. Leaves a white cast that takes some time to disappear. I love most EltaMD sunscreens and use many. I use the heavier ones on my neck and chest. It’s a great body sunscreen not so much for face.

Too white!
This is probably the 1st product I have ever bought that I gave a bad review. No matter how much you use it stays white on your skin. It is also too thick & drying. I thought that I would try this sunscreen instead of the Elta MD UV Sport SPF 50 sunscreen, but I am returning and won't use again. I will go back to the UV Sport, which I love.

elta md broad spectrum 50+
this is a somewhat thick, pasty sunscreen that is a bit difficult to apply. the stickiness goes away after it is applied. it goes on with a white tint that quickly disappears as you rub it in. it feels hydrating. it is completely unscented.

Hard to rub in
This is a good sunscreen it is very thick and hard to run in but the ingredients and efficiency is great.
